[QUOTE="longstockings, post: 82521, member: 180880"] For the last few days my Dreambox has lost all signal strength. This happened once before but after a dry spell it all kicked back in again and functioned as normal. This time however I don't appear to be as lucky. What's the best way of drying out a motorised satellite setup ? It's very high up and I was wondering if there is a way that I could set it up on the arc on the ground and then mount it onto its pole again. Is this possible ? The setup was only temporary just over xmas and it was only able to get Hotbird. The motor makes a noise but does not turn and the pole keeps shocking me This is what you get when you enlist the help of a shoddy satellite installer who takes your money and runs. I had to buy ladders and a satellite meter myself so I could try and sort this mess out. Any thoughts or suggestions would be very welcome My setup is Dreambox 7000s 120gb hdd + dream keyboard ([color=Red]keyboard for sale, if interested post your offers[/color]) 80 cm polycarbonate dish with 0.3 lnb Attached to house just above roof so it clears it with a t & k bracket and galvonised pole.
